Minutes of the GENERAL MEETING held on Monday, the 18th April 2011 in the
South West Community Centre, 171 Sturt Street in Adelaide.
Secretary Leo Vandenberg welcomed members and opened the meeting at 2:00 P.M.
He then invited our Member John Morcom to give his presentation entitled "The Border Dispute".
No one knew the difficulties experienced by the Murrayland's Community in transporting their
children over the border to attend school. A very interesting story indeed.
At the conclusion of his presentation, John Dowe thanked John for sharing this interesting
story with the members.
The members then responded with acclamation.
John was then asked to draw the first raffle ticket.
